A new update has been rolled out by Google’s Data Liberation Front,
adding new features to Google’s export tool that has been designed to
easily enable Google users to remove and import data in and out of
Google products, such as Gmail, Calendar and Docs.
The new update brings with it additions to the export feature for
Google Docs which adds export support for ODT, PDF, RTF, Text, Word, and
HTML. Enabling you to download from many different Google services at
the same time into one convenient file.
The Google Takeout service launched in 2011 has been created to
provide users with a handy backup facility and a way to move data to
other providers if required. The new update has also added a handy
feature that will automatically email users when an export archive is
ready to download. Google’s Takeout feature now supports exporting data
from: +1’s, Buzz, Google+ Circles, Google+ Profile, Google+ Stream,
Contacts, Docs, Knol, Picasa Web Albums, and Voice.
